More about Mark

  • 28 years' experience
  • Male
  • LCSW

Hello. My name is Mark Williams. I am a licensed clinical social worker with 28 plus years of experience in the counseling field. I have worked with clients who have a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction and relationship issues. I have extensive experience in treating alcohol and other drug problems.

My counseling style is warm and non judgmental. I believe that focusing on client self care is very important. My approach is a combination of both psychodynamic and

cognitive behavioral counseling. I will listen, provide feedback and help you find ways to deal with emotional issues.

I know that change can be difficult. I would be more than happy to work collaboratively with you to address the issues you bring up in counseling.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
